School Philosophy and Aims
Our Aims...
Our children will be provided with excellent learning experiences which lead to consistently high levels of individual academic and social achievement so that they can develop into people with strong feelings of self-worth.
We challenge and extend each child with learning tailored to their abilities.
We teach a broad and balanced curriculum to a high standard with particular emphasis on literacy and numeracy.
We promote extra-curricula activities which enhance and enrich pupils development.
We believe parents have an active role in supporting what is learned in school and we encourage parental participation.
We provide an environment which promotes confidence, independence, responsibility and a positive attitude towards learning.
We can meet these aims by…
Setting challenging targets for the school as a whole and for individual children
Providing high quality learning opportunities
Planning for a broad and balanced curriculum
Ensuring that each child is learning at a level that matches and then extends their skills and knowledge
Encouraging all children to become confident speakers and listeners in a range of settings

Discipline and Routine…
At Nayland School we are constantly striving to improve your children’s learning. As part of this we regularly review systems and procedures across all areas of the curriculum and the wider life of the school.
It is tremendously important that parents understand and support the school’s approach if we are to offer your children the very best educational opportunities and the optimum start to their learning lives.
Every single thing that happens in school, whether it is in class or outside, has an impact on your child’s and other children’s learning.
Behaviour that adheres to The Nayland Code will support learning for all.
The Nayland Code is…
‘ At Nayland we are good learners because we
Listen carefully
Follow instructions
Respect others and
Care for the environment.’
In all areas of school life we will focus on appropriate conduct whenever possible. We will continue to use praise, encouragement and positive reinforcement in response to good behaviour.
